Dear Planted people,
while preparing today's lecture I realised I have no idea about how can 
a cuticle be formed? It is mainly composed of highly hydrofobic
molecules that must cross a hydrophylic environment before reaching
their final destination.  I assume that macromolecular complexes will
be assembled only after reaching that destination, but how is this
regulated?

Any reference comments or suggestion very welcome.
Teaching commences in 3 hrs!!

BTW, any idea whether there is a paperback edition of "Biology
of Plants" by Raven, Evert  &Eichhorn (5th edition, 1992)?
Thanks again.
